Standing While Sitting Down<\/h5>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]They are strong, powerful, and feminine, holding your gaze with a sense of understanding of things that we could never dare to express; I see them as standing strong, even while sitting down, challenging and reshaping gender expectations that are long-established in our culture.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

My mother accepted security at a cost. I insisted on freedom of choice. Women today are embracing nothing less than total acceptance of who they are, body and mind.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space]

Sit Like a Lady<\/h5>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]We are taught to play roles every day, worrying about what we are supposed to do, and stressing about what every other person thinks of us. We are told what makes a lady, that it is something intangible, yet ever important. It lives in the way we speak, walk, and dress. I thought of my mother as this piece came to life, and she said, \u201csit like a lady.\u201d[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space]

Point of Crossing<\/h5>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]Every day, we experience fleeting moments between the unfamiliar, sharing a common place and time. These near meetings have a transparency to them, passing points in space, seemingly insignificance. Points where future, present, and past overlap then fade. It feels important to remember these drifting connections.<\/span><\/span><\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space]
